System and method for candidate profile screening

Abstract for 2018201140 A processor-implemented method and system for candidate profile screening comprising: receiving a request for screening of a candidate profile associated with a candidate, the candidate profile comprising a plurality of candidate profile attributes; dividing the candidate profile into a plurality of subset-profiles, each subset-profile comprising subset-profile information associated with candidate profile attributes of the plurality of candidate profile attributes; and validating the subset-profile information by mapping the subset-profile information associated with the plurality of subset-profiles with target-profile information of a plurality of targets to identify a set of targets from amongst the plurality of targets, a target of the set of targets capable of screening the subset-profile information of the subset-profiles, the target profile information comprising at least one of real-time information and contextual information of the plurality of targets: provisioning queries to the set of targets to enable the set of targets to perform screening of the subset-profile information; receiving responses to the queries from the set of targets, wherein the responses facilitates in validating the subset-profile information of the candidate profile; computing an aggregated weightage associated with the responses received from the set of targets, the aggregated weightage computed based at least on an extent of matching of the responses with the candidate profile attributes of the subset-profile information and a confidence score associated with each target of the set of targets, wherein the confidence score associated with the each target is indicative of a probability of accuracy of responses provided by the target and wherein the confidence score is computed based on at least one of past history of responses provided by the target, promptness in providing the responses, correctness of the responses, and difficulty level of previous queries assigned to the target: and comparing the aggregated weightage with a threshold value of the aggregated weightage to identify the subset-profile information as one of a valid information and an invalid information; wherein a candidate profile attribute of the plurality of candidate profile attributes comprises a plurality of verification parameters, and wherein a verification parameter of the plurality of verification parameters is associated with an importance rating and a sensitivity level, whe
